Re: Newsletter

That's alright. Bakerychaz (talk page · blog) 02:32, July 10, 2012 (UTC)

Copyright issue

The mediawiki or something is acting up again. This time when you upload a file and choose a copyright, the file will not be copyrighted instead. So the file will have no category. This doesn't happen when using upload multiple files though. Nikel _{Talk – Vote – Guess!} 15:12, July 13, 2012 (UTC)

Never mind. Just added an icon this morning... and it looked fine. :/ Nikel _{Talk – Vote – Guess!} 05:18, July 14, 2012 (UTC)

Featured Article

Hey Wogan! In The Sims Wiki:Featured Article/Voting, I nominated Inventory for Featured Article and you postponed it because it didn't have any images, and since then people have added some images, could you please re-open it? Thanks! Bakerychaz (talk page · blog) 13:40, July 15, 2012 (UTC)

Bot Request

This one's a biggy. Would you be able to use WoganBot to lock all the player stories pages? It has been discussed here and it seems to be a sensible move. -- LiR ^{speak ~ read} 23:19, July 25, 2012 (UTC)

I can do it, but it would put a pretty large strain on the servers, not to mention I'd have to run AWB constantly for ~8 hours. I might do a little research and see if I could get a similar result another way. I'm pretty sure it might be possible to write an abuse filter rule which has the same effect. ―ฬђ ^talk 04:56, July 26, 2012 (UTC)

A little help

Now that there's upcoming TS3:S, can you help me replace all usage of era from {{Era|TS3S}} with {{Era|STORE}} in Category:Riverview Sims and Category:Riverview families? Thanks in advance! Nikel _{Talk – Vote!} 12:19, August 3, 2012 (UTC)

Sure. I'll leave a note when I've had my bot do it all. ―ฬђ ^talk 22:44, August 3, 2012 (UTC)

Late reply, but all done. ―ฬђ ^talk 02:46, August 5, 2012 (UTC)

Thank you Wogan! I didn't realize it. It didn't notify me in my e-mail nor did I notice it the recent activities. Nikel _{Talk – Vote!} 04:06, August 5, 2012 (UTC)

Something I can't think of a Title for

Hey Wogan! First, I would like to thank you for approving my request for rollback. It means a lot to me, and I'm going to have to get used to the little icon on my page. Secondly, I was just wondering: what kind of computer are you on at the moment? PGR7 ^{(habla - escuchar)} 23:03, August 3, 2012 (UTC)

No probs :) I'm using a desktop PC with Windows 7, I have a laptop but its not what you'd call good by any means, so I use this one to do stuff. ―ฬђ ^talk 01:43, August 4, 2012 (UTC)

OK. Just wondering: what color does my sig show up as on your desktop? PGR7 ^{(habla - escuchar)} 02:07, August 4, 2012 (UTC)

Userpage link = red, talkpage = purple-ish, blog = grey. See for yourself. Since you're using recognised HTML colours it'll show like that in any browser or OS. ―ฬђ ^talk 02:46, August 4, 2012 (UTC)

Really? I logged on to my account on my desktop, and the blog part showed up as a light green. Thank you, Wogan, I'll figure out something about that. Maybe I'm hallucinating. XD. Yeah, I'll see. Thanks. PGR7 ^{(habla - escuchar)} 02:53, August 4, 2012 (UTC)

Community input required

Hello, there is a fairly important discussion on the Community Portal talk page regarding the seemingly declining activity from users and input/suggestions on how to solve this problem would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. Lost Labyrinth • (c) • (b) 21:23, August 6, 2012 (UTC) This automated message was delivered by Bawt (talk) 21:23, August 6, 2012 (UTC)

TS3 Logo

Well, you said that File:The Sims 3.png broke something, but what's broken? We could replace it with File:The Sims 3 Logo.png. Nikel _{Talk – Vote!} 04:41, August 11, 2012 (UTC)

I'm not sure what it broke, since someone else noticed it. You could probably go to the whatLinksHere or whatever its called for the file and change all the instances of it. Granted two of the same file is alright with me, so do what you will with it. ―ฬђ ^talk 04:53, August 11, 2012 (UTC)

That's odd, since I've checked it several times, and all it links are just the pages which are sourced from some templates... and I've already fixed the templates. I'll try to check it again. Nikel _{Talk – Vote!} 05:00, August 11, 2012 (UTC)

The only things left in WhatLinksHere are only userpages that use TS3 userboxes, external sites for TS3, and Duskey's subpage. So far, only Duskey's userpage that uses the direct file, whereas others use template. But I don't want to check each of everyone's page. I'll just keep it for a moment then to see if nobody's really using it. Nikel _{Talk – Vote!} 05:25, August 11, 2012 (UTC)

Require Directions...

Hi there! Sorry for bothering you, but I noticed there's a user here, PotterSims, who's description is completely in Spanish. She/he has contributed in English, but I was wondering if you wouldn't mind directing them to the Spanish version of the wiki (I would assume its Los Sims Wiki, but I'm a n00b at Spanish)? PGR7 ^{(habla - escuchar)} 02:33, August 13, 2012 (UTC)

SimsPedia actually, and from their profile they already edit there. ―ฬђ ^talk 02:37, August 13, 2012 (UTC)

Meme stupid. Thank you Wogan, and sorry for bothering you. PGR7 ^{(habla - escuchar)} 02:48, August 13, 2012 (UTC)

IRC

Come to the IRC when you can, please. :) --RoseGui (talk here) 10:05, August 14, 2012 (UTC)

but y u no ever there??? :( If you want to catch me on there you'd probably be best to get there like 10am your time because I have school and timezone differences most of the time :/ ―ฬђ ^talk 05:15, August 15, 2012 (UTC)

I woke up late today and it's almost 11am, and you're not there. :( Probably because you already went to school? --RoseGui (talk here) 10:01, August 15, 2012 (UTC)

I'm on now, if you have the time :3 ―ฬђ ^talk 09:20, August 17, 2012 (UTC)

Question for Admin

I'm the author of "The Unusual Life of K.J. Griffiths" series, and just today, I saw that the series needed "Fannon Cleanup." Basically, I'm really only wondering why it needs that. I mean no questioning of judgement, but I think my grammar is pretty okay and my spelling's decent for Fannon stories. So It'd be greatly appreciated if you told me why it's enlisted for Cleanup now.

- Thank you in advance if you respond,

Noak496 (talk) 03:12, August 28, 2012 (UTC) Noak 496

I tagged it because it doesn't really meet the Manual of Style. This is a good example of what you should be aiming to emulate in how you structure it. Essentially, you should put an infobox on the page, and, as a rule, don't bold a whole sentence such as you did for the characters description. Also, avoid using signatures on fanon pages, they are intended for talkpages ~ the property template tells people who created it. If you have any questions/issues or you want me to re-check it after you've fixed it up a little, just leave me another message :) ―ฬђ ^talk 03:24, August 28, 2012 (UTC)

Deleted Files

You deleted files... that are duplicate? I don't get it. Some pages now don't have images. :/ Such as Malika Williams and Daniel Pleasant. Nikel _{Talk – Vote!} 09:05, August 30, 2012 (UTC)

Yeah that was a generic edit summary. I used it to delete every file in Special:UnusedFiles, however it seems that there was a couple of errors with the page, as it listed some used files :/ It'd be far too tedious to go back and check them all, so I'll look over Special:WantedFiles and restore any that were deleted by accident when the server updates it. ―ฬђ ^talk 09:17, August 30, 2012 (UTC)

Well, I'll restore back several images that are needed then. Nikel _{Talk – Vote!} 09:30, August 30, 2012 (UTC)

Congratulations on 10,000 edits!

RE: Newsletter

I'd love to! I'll email a fanon review to you via Special:EmailUser. I'll pick a random one to review. I love contributing to the newsletter so I'd love to do this. BakeryChaz ~ (let's have a chat!) 10:26, September 5, 2012 (UTC)

Vandalism found

I was going through the edits of the article The Sims 3: Seasons and found a vandalism edit from an unknown contributor. I revert his edits already to the original ones.

I contacted you, Nikel23 and GEORGIEGIBBONS to tell you this. Maybe you three can take action.

A word this wiki considers profanity, when it's not.

Recently I voted on the "Same-Sex Marriage" talk page. My vote/comment had to be edited before this wiki would accept it due to it considering a certain world profanity when it is not. At least it isn't in any developed country. A 3-letter word that starts with 'G' ends in 'Y' and has an 'A' in the middle. Why is this word considered a swear? I find this insulting. That word does NOT need to be considered profanity because it is not. I hope this is resolved soon.The Black Scorpion (talk) 12:50, October 10, 2012 (UTC)

TBS, I've sent you a message (you should have received a notification about that). - LiR ^{speak ~ read} 16:20, October 10, 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for taking care of this LiR. Also, thanks for bringing this up, I never noticed since I didn't install that particular filter (and iirc it was "borrowed" from another wiki anyway). My apologies. ―ฬђ ^talk 03:05, October 11, 2012 (UTC)

SimPrograms

Dunno how much free time you have or if you'd be interested, but I will soon be leaving SimPrograms (along with Jud) and the new owner needs a few writers. I know you've very active on this wiki and your experince will come in very handy on SP. If interested let me know and I'll let her know. Thanks.The Black Scorpion (talk) 23:56, October 10, 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for the offer :) I'll think it over and get back to you on this. ―ฬђ ^talk 22:28, October 11, 2012 (UTC)
